Sentimental Attachment

I just sold my very first electric guitar today (an American Stratocaster) and I kinda miss it. I havent' been playing it in ages ever since I started jazz guitar and now bass. And though I practically wouldn't ever use it much since I am totally committed to the Dark Side, I can't help but feel a little bummed letting go of a first love.

*sigh*

I can't imagine how you guys can sell your old Kay's and such. Even the A.S.S'es. So how do you guys get over it?

I sold my Kay after I had my current bass for about a year. The Kay was just sitting in the corner, it never got played anymore. It was just one more thing to move around while cleaning the apartment, so I decided to turn it into money.

Of course NOW, Kate and I are going back to Georgia every year or a couple of times a year and I would LOVE to have a plywood with a good setup I could leave down there. I been doing sessions and gigs on a wide variety of badly set up Chinese BSOs, a Framus that had had the bridge put on backwards, etc...
